Cooking a Unique Adobo

                     Cooking adobo is easy as counting one, two, three. For those who don't know what adobo is, it is like Filipino's national dish. Not really national but think it is because we Filipino's commonly cook adobo as our viand. Adobo's main ingredient is commonly  meat, poultry products and seafoods like pork, squid, chicken, chicken's feet, liver and gizzard. You can also replace meat by adding vegetables like string beans and swamp cabbage (kangkong). But I have a substitute ingredient that will make your adobo a unique dish. It's none other than Hotdogs. I first discovered it we hanged out at my friend's house. We only have hotdogs for lunch so we planned to make a twist on it. Since we are so desperate to eat, we cooked a simple dish which is adobo. Here are the steps and procedure if you want to try our crazy dish.

                     First, Prepare ten cloves of garlic, minced, one cup soy sauce, three fourths cup of vinegar, one half tablespoon of pepper, one tablespoon sugar, two pieces laurel leaves and one kilogram of Hotdog. After checking if you already have all the ingredients, heat the cooking oil in the pan. Now, saute garlic until limp. Make sure that the fire is on medium temperature or else the garlic will burn. Add soy sauce, vinegar, pepper sugar, laurel leaves and hotdogs. Let it simmer for about twenty to twenty-five minutes. Make sure you'll watch over your dish completely because overcooking makes the hotdogs crush. When it is already done, transfer the dish in a presentable bowl. Adding sliced hard boiled egg on top will make your dish more presentable.

                    Now find a comfortable place for you to eat. For me, eating in the living room while watching t.v. is the best. Hotdog Adobo's best partner is hot steamed rice. you will notice that when you pour the sauce in your rice, its color is maroon, different from the normal adobo which is brown in color. Also, eating with your bare hands will make your meal more enjoyable. Don't think that it is awful because Filipinos always do that. But if you don't like eating with bare hands, feel free to use spoon and fork.

                  I hope that when you try this recipe, you'll be pleased and satisfied. I made this recipe based on my knowledge and experience. I told you, cooking adobo is easy right? You will not just be Filipino by taste but also Filipino by Heart. ENJOY !

" My Guilty Pleasure "

                        There is something im really craving for right now, it’s CHOCOLATE! I don’t know why but I feel like hungry for something sweet. My taste buds are always looking for the rich taste of chocolate. Oh! Not just my taste buds but also my tummy. I’m already contented with chocolate even if I don’t eat a meal. I know I may be crazy but it’s the truth. I don’t know what’s with the chocolate that makes it so delicious. Maybe a witch or a wizard casts a spell on it? Just kidding!

                       Eating chocolate makes you feel like you’re in cloud nine. Maybe because of its unique taste. Sorry but I can’t explain because it’s too unique! But, there is something I know about chocolates. It can have many looks, taste, smell, flavors and even filling! My favorite flavor is milk chocolate especially when it is Cadbury or Hershey’s … yum! Oh I almost forgot, I also love Kisses. The triangle shaped chocolate wrapped in a foil and has a strip of paper on top. Yes, I like that! Now, let’s move on to Chocó-coated wafers. Kitkat and Twix is my favorite. Every bite is like heaven. The crunchiness, the taste of wafer combined with chocolate. Wow, I was like “ should I really eat this? What if it’s already my last time to eat a chocolate like this? “ What am I thinking?

                   

                        But not all chocolate is appealing to my taste buds, like chocolate with nuts. I just…hate it. Maybe because I taste a lot of nuts instead of chocolate.  And also fruit flavored chocolate is a totally no. I can patiently  eat chocolate with nuts rather than eating fruit flavored chocolate. I just can’t cope up with the taste of fruit combine with chocolate. Hey! Want some tips in eating M & m‘s ? Just don’t eat it all together. Putting it in your mouth one by one makes you realize what’s the real taste of it. It’s okay if you won’t do it but for me it’s the best!

                      Toblerone, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Fox’s biscuits, Cadbury bars and Fingers, Cookies and cream kisses, M & ‘s, Ferrero Rocher, Mars, Aero Bubbles, Maltesers, Mikado, Galaxy, flat tops and cream o is all my favorites! I always eat that bare handed so I can lick the remained chocolate in my finger. I know Im not the only one who loves to do it, right? Oh! Can I stop now? Because the more I write about it, the more I craves especially right now, I don’t have any chocolate beside me. Now, there is only one thing I conclude about chocolates. Its finger, lickin, kickin good!
